Chapter 7: The Black Sea and the December Princess (1)
"Are you going?" said Arunette hugging Ulysses from behind and whispering in his ear.
"Well, Ingrid will leave it to you for the time being. Ulysses raised his right hand, and a strange crescent moon shone on it.
It was the mark of his current status as the Lord of the Moon Sea, and the proof of the victory in this Garden War. He took the place of Arunette, the original owner of the Moon Sea, and thus reigned over the Silent Sea as the new Lord of the Moon Sea.
"Well, let me bite again. Arunette bared her tiny fangs and bit Ulysses' neck.
With a slight snort, Arunette took in a lot of nutrients, and only after eating that she couldn't be full anymore did she reluctantly let go of Ulysses.
Black feathers fell, and Ulysses disappeared into the silent sky of the Sea of Moon.
"Ah......" Ingrid bit her finger and looked at the departing Ulysses, her eyes full of confusion.
"It's okay, I'll be back soon. When the time comes, I will surprise him. Arunette stroked the part of her lower abdomen and smiled pleasantly.
............ War, war, war, in the huge garden of the world, all the legends that have left traces in the memory of the world are being revived. All beings with great potential are at war.
For the terrible enemy is at hand, for the shadow that will lead to the destruction of the world is too near, and the young world is screaming terribly, and it will do whatever it takes to choose the strongest spokesperson.
This is the reason for the opening of the "Garden of the World" this time, to concentrate all the forces of this world and find the strongest.
The powerful beings that exist in the memories of this world and have left traces in the dreams of the world have all woken up.
And the world that Ulysses is stepping into at this moment is such a wild sea that is incomparably close to ancient times.
There were huge creatures everywhere, and since he entered this sea, he had been attacked dozens of times. The kind of ancient great white shark that once attacked the Titanic appeared here as a swarm. And the kind of big octopus with huge tentacles of hundreds of meters can be seen everywhere here.
This is the paradise of ancient life, the hometown of the deep sea demons - the Black Sea.
"Boom!" Ulysses swung a sword that split the sea, and the terrifying sword wave directly created a huge abyss several kilometers deep and hundreds of kilometers long in the sea.
Hundreds of millions of lives were wiped out in this sword, but it was only a small part of the ocean filled with countless ancient life, and soon more sea creatures filled the gaps, and together with countless seawaters, repaired the huge abyssal sword marks.
If it were in the human world, Ulysses would have been able to shake the whole world and even leave its own legend in history. But in this wild ancient sea, the power of this sword could not even leave many traces.
This is the Black Sea, a world of countless ancient life, uncharted waters that humans have not yet been qualified to set foot in.
Even millions, tens of millions of human armies are as small as dust to this ocean of vast ancient creatures. Among them, they are just those monsters that live in the shallow sea, and a few of them can wipe out an army of millions.
And in the deeper places, there are many more terrifying monsters hidden, which are dangerous realms that even ninth-level powerhouses dare not enter at will. In that deep sea, there are xenos called deep sea monsters, and any of them has the terrifying power to cause natural disasters.
In this world, it is not humans who control the territory the most, but these deep-sea species and extrahuman beings, who are the true lords of the seven seas. For the incomparably vast ocean, the continent inhabited by humans is just a relatively large island, and the area of the Black Sea alone exceeds that continent by an unknown number of times.
The ocean is the world's broadest stage and the gathering place of the strongest monster species.
"It's a real problem. After wielding the third sword, killing more than 10,000 times the previous combined, Ulysses had to admit that he had underestimated this sea area a little.
Here, the law of the jungle is normal, but in addition, the monsters living here seem to have a crazy xenophobia, and will launch a collective attack desperately once they encounter an alien species. Obviously, he has killed batch after batch, but there are still a large wave of monsters who don't know whether they are alive or dead.
If he hadn't come here, Ulysses would probably never have imagined that monsters with combat power comparable to human level 7 powerhouses were calculated here as "swarms", and it was no wonder that there was no trace of human civilization here.
Eighth-level demonic beasts are not uncommon here, and strangely enough, there are no traces of birth wisdom at all.
Powerful, huge, terrifying, this is the main theme of this ocean, and the world where civilization has almost no chance.
"That's right!" Ulysses remembered a piece of equipment that might be useful here, after once more killing the giant crabs that were trying to devour him.
It was the fiancée that Ice Phoenix's mother had prepared for him, and the Lady of Warcraft that he had met in a wonderful way, Diane of the Black Sea.
At that unique blind date, she gave him a special gift. Ulysses retrieved it from the dark dimension and put it on his head.
It was a beautiful five-colored crown, an engagement gift given to him by Ulysses' fiancée, who was approved by the Ice Phoenix, and her favorite thing.
It is lady's etiquette to give your proudest and favorite treasure to your beloved.
"Boom!" Amid the crashing sound of countless waves, many ancient creatures that had been violently killing Ulysses stopped abruptly, and then looked at the five-colored crown on Ulysses' head with frightened eyes.
In the five-colored crown, the figures of five huge monsters loomed.
The first gem was sealed with a large octopus with teeth and claws, a huge sucker wrapped around its eight tentacles, tumbling and splashing, and a brown crown on top of its head.
In the second gem is a king squid, and the dark black shell exudes a strange miasma. Wearing a black crown, it has ten huge tentacles, and its extended-shaped eyes look cold, like a hunter ready to hunt its prey.
The third gem is a spear squid, with a crystal crown on its large head, and its tentacles are tightly intertwined, exuding an unbeatable aura.
The fourth gem is a transparent jellyfish with a beautiful body with countless tiny tentacles extending from its body. With its golden crown, fluttering tentacles and colorful colors, it presents a dreamy and graceful body.
The fifth jewel is a strange crocodile draped in red scales, wearing a red blood crown and crimson eyes full of cruelty, like a living tyrant.
Looking at the five-colored crown, all the monsters of the sea fled, far away from where Ulysses was, as if there were some terrible monsters there.
It was the fear that had been embedded in their life instincts, the mark of the nightmare of the ancient sea.
It was the ancient memory of their ancestor, the archetype, the species of origin that had been eaten and devoured by the owner of this crown. Unlike outsiders like Ulysses, the owner of this crown is the king of the sea, the nightmare of these powerful sea monsters.
